Adopt a Pet

Reason No.64Share7 Million to 1 Odds Over 7 million animals enter shelters every year. If you’re looking for the perfect pet and aren’t good at math, those are really great odds.

Reason No.102SharePick Up Less Poop Many shelter animals are already house trained. You want a cuddle buddy, not a poop machine. Your knees and your floor will thank you.

Reason No.13ShareA Helluva Deal Spaying/neutering, first vaccinations, and microchipping are often included when you adopt. More $ for pet toys! Or beer… or pet toys!

Reason No.21ShareBragging Rights Nobody’s gonna throw you a parade or give you a key to the city, but you can brag all you want. We give you permission.

Reason No.54SharePerfect Pets Most animals in shelters are happy, healthy, and trained. They simply don’t have homes due to divorces, people moving, and others who simply can’t handle the responsibility. Luckily, that doesn’t sound like you.

SO, YOU’RE NOT READY TO COMMIT

We get it. Not all of us are ready for that kind of responsibility. Luckily, there’s a way you can save some pets even if you’ve got a lot going on, but it’s best that you meet the following requirements.

Here’s a quick checklist:

Got reliable transportation?
Pets can’t get to their own vet appointments.

Have a couple of free hours a day?
Pets have a lot of love to give, so give some back.

Can you commit to providing a home for the time needed?
Sorry, we know how you feel about commitment, but we need some sort of reliability.

Are you in good standing with kittens you’ve met in the past?
Some organizations ask for references.
